The cancer tissue page shows antibody staining in 20 different cancers. The overall cancer tissue staining statistics shows the fraction of patient samples with strong, moderate, weak or no staining (as described by the color-coding scale in the box to the right), using all the available antibodies to the protein targets encoded by this gene. The assay and annotation is described here.
The cancers can be ordered histologically or alphabetically.
For each cancer, the staining for each available antibody is reported as the fraction of samples with strong, moderate, weak or no staining (as described by the color-coding scale in the box to the right). The lenght of the bar represents the number of patient samples analysed (max=12 patients). By clicking on a cancer tissue, the detailed staining data for that cancer is available, including annotated images.
At the bottom of this page, a summary for the cancer staining for each antibody is given, together with the immunohistochemistry validation score for that antibody.
Malignant carcinoids displayed strong staining which also was observed in several cases of endometrial and a few colorectal and cervical cancers. Remaining malignant cells were negative.
Malignant carcinoids, several basal cell carcinomas of skin and a few cases of endometrial cancers displayed strong cytoplasmic positivity. Remaining malignant tissues along with stroma were negative.
Carcinoids and a few cases of endometrial cancers showed strong cytoplasmic staining. Occasional cases of basal cell carcinoma of skin exhibited moderate to strong positivity. Remaining malignant tissues were negative.
Validation
Two (or more) antibodies yielding similar staining patterns which are consistent with available gene/protein characterization data
Two (or more) antibodies yielding similar staining patterns which are consistent with available gene/protein characterization data
